★★★★
(directed by Mike Mills, 2011)
This deliciously quirky film is all about love, loss and letting go. It manages to be thought-provoking without being pretentious, sweet without being sentimental and moving without being mawkish. Not much happens, but it leaves you with a warm sense of humanity’s capacity for love in all its forms: for parents, children, friends, lovers, girlfriends, boyfriends, pets.
